Here's a site with top 750. Yes 750. Mine's bigger

Actually, I find it a very good site. I haven't done the paid part yet. But, they have a heckuva lot of free info too.

Actually a top 100 but the top 64 have brief capsules written by nfldraftscout's Cooney. This is probably the best reference in this thread so far for those unfamiliar with the draft's top prospects -- especially the first two rounds:

Excellent write-up. Going by their rankings sign me up for
1. V.Gholston - olb Get our pass-rusher to spell Vrabel/Colvin.
2. B. Flowers - cb Throw him into the fire. Hope he can go.
3a P.Wheeler - ilb He would push our vets and maybe start by 2nd year.
3B J.King - cb Developmental player. Needs work on technique. Might be
worth the risk if he develops into starting player.

Based on those (and other) write-ups, there appears to be holes in all the top CBs', and also Keith Rivers', games. I really, really hope that we can execute a trade if neither Gholston nor the Longs are available at #7. I would feel better drafting DRC, McKelvin or Rivers in the teens and have an extra pick, than drafting either of them at #7 with no other pick until #62.
